Clear & Present: Sobriety as a Bold Act of Rebellion
But we're all told to drink responsibly and we're told, if we don't, there's a rock bottom and a label that goes along with that. So what if there's another way to think about sobriety?
What if sobriety isn't just about quitting alcohol but a bold stand against the forces shaping our lives? In this trailer for 'Clear & Present', host Bryen Fulcher flips the script on traditional views of drinking and sobriety. Instead of seeing sobriety as hitting rock bottom, Bryen challenges us to view it as a revolutionary act.
This episode dares to question the concepts of 'responsible drinking' and 'rock bottom', proposing that sobriety can be a form of rebellion against capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy. Bryen encourages listeners to wake up to the societal impacts on our drinking habits and see personal growth not as a destination but a continuous journey.
The trailer invites you to reflect on how you show up in the world and consider the profound changes that can occur when we confront our use of alcohol. This thought-provoking episode sets the stage for a podcast that promises to be both eye-opening and empowering, urging listeners to be clear and present in a world that often pushes us to numb out.
